Present value of annuity PV = P(1 - (1 + r/t)^-nt) / (r/t)
where: p is the monthly payment, r is the APR = 14.12% = 0.1412, t is the number of payments in one year = 12, n is the number of years = 2.
1,120.87 = P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^(-2 x 12)) / (0.1412 / 12)
0.1412(1120.87) = 12P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24)
P = 0.1412(1120.87) / 12(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24) = $53.88

Minimum monthly payment = 3.15% of 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = 0.0315 x 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = $35.72

Therefore, his first payment will be greater than the minimum payment by 53.88 - 35.72 = $18.16

a rectangle has a length of (x+3) centimeters and a width of 1/2x centimeters. If the perimeter is 24 centimeters, what is the l
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) cm and a width of rectangle (w) = \frac{1}{2} x cm a

Also, perimeter of rectangle is 24 cm.

Perimeter of rectangle is to add the lengths of all the four sides.

Perimeter of rectangle (P) is given by;

P=2(l+w)

Substituting the value of P = 24 cm , l = (x+3) cm and w =\frac{1}{2} x

then,  

24 = 2 (x+3+\frac{1}{2} x)

Divide by 2 both sides of an equation;

12 = x+3+\frac{1}{2}x

Combine like terms;

12 =\frac{3x}{2} +3

Subtract 3 from both the sides we get;

12-3 = \frac{3x}{2} +3-3

Simplify:

9 =\frac{3x}{2}

Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{3} we get

x = 9 \times \frac{2}{3} = 3 \times 2 = 6

Therefore, length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) = 6+3 = 9 cm

A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour.if electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour how much does
Ksivusya [100]
A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour.if electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour. Let's solve how much does it cost to have a bulb on for an hour. => 120 watt = 0.1 kilowatt per hour which costs 0.20 per kilowatt per => 0.1 kilowatt per hour * 0.20 = 0.02 dollars in an hour.

Kyle works at a donut​ factory, where a​ 10-oz cup of coffee costs 95cents​, a​ 14-oz cup costs​ $1.15, and a​ 20-oz cup costs​
choli [55]
Let x = no. of 10 oz cups sold
Let y = no. of 14 oz cups sold
Let z = no. of 20 oz cups sold
:
Equation 1: total number of cups sold:
x + y + z = 24
:
Equation 2: amt of coffee consumed:
10x + 14y + 20z = 384
:
Equation 3: total revenue from cups sold
.95x + 1.15y + 1.50z = 30.60
:
Mult the 1st equation by 20 and subtract the 2nd equation from it:
20x + 20y + 20z = 480
10x + 14y + 20z = 384
------------------------ subtracting eliminates z
10x + 6y = 96; (eq 4)

Mult the 1st equation by 1.5 and subtract the 3rd equation from it:
1.5x + 1.5y + 1.5z = 36.00
.95x + 1.15y+ 1.5z = 30.60
---------------------------subtracting eliminates z again
.55x + .35y = 5.40; (eq 5)

Multiply eq 4 by .055 and subtract from eq 5:
.55x + .35y = 5.40
.55x + .33y = 5.28
--------------------eliminates x
0x + .02y = .12
y = .12/.02
y = 6 ea 14 oz cups sold 

Substitute 6 for y for in eq 4
10x + 6(6) = 96
10x = 96 - 36
x = 60/10
x = 6 ea 10 oz cups

That would leave 12 ea 20 oz cups (24 - 6 - 6 = 12)

Check our solutions in eq 2:
10(6) + 14(6) + 20(12) =
60 + 84 + 240 = 384 oz

A lot steps, hope it made some sense! I hope this helps!! ;D
